I have painted some ornaments and have a couple extras and am putting them on Etsy. My sister-in-law has her home decorated with a Harlequin pattern and she had been looking for Christmas bulbs for her tree. She was not having any luck and I told her that I would give it a whirl and painted some for her. The first two pictures are of the glass ornaments I painted.  They are 2 1/2 inch round.  I...

            I received an order for Christmas wine glasses, four Christmas bulb ornaments and four Christmas Candy ornaments.

                I spend a little time just about every day looking around on Pinterest.  I get so many ideas there, more ideas than I have time to follow through on.  I have seen a lot of these drippy candles and I have pinned numerous ones thinking I would give them a whirl.  This is the one that gave me the push to finally just try my hand at making some…   We had a cardboard mailer tube...
